Lakewood Contempt And Enforcement Lawyer

Contempt

Contempt of court can refer to a person disregarding a court order or judgment. When it comes to family law, the most common examples of contempt can include a parent not paying child support or not following a visitation (parenting time plan), a former spouse not paying alimony or a party in a divorce not following a judge’s instructions regarding the division of marital assets. In Colorado, contempt is considered a quasi-criminal matter that can have significant consequences.

Enforcement

In the context of family law, enforcement refers to actions that can be taken to remedy contempt:

To compel a parent to make child support payments
To order a parent to comply with a parenting time (traditionally known as “visitation”) plan
To obtain back spousal maintenance or alimony
To make sure property division occurs as directed

There are a variety of different tools available for enforcement — and for defending against enforcement. Not every tool works or offers the desired result you may want in your case.
